 | We'll see how it goes, I hope it'll be as cool as I think. The dia can contain alot of added functions, which unlike zlauncher can be accessed anywhere. I could even have a VG area w/o a writing and have it be a "tool panel" that could be accessed anywhere. As a matter of fact, who really uses all 3 VG types anyways? I think I will eliminate the 3 panel vg in favor of a "tool panel" and stay with the regular keyboard and modified classic VG area.

| I'm one of those who don't use all three. I'm starting to see some new oppertunities for the DIA area to become something that it wasn't designed for, but with the creative minds of skinners like yourself, Burn, DM, Bump That, filber, Alex (Pruss) and Herve' it could be, and ergo Palm might just be resuscitate lol.

| Once I get home from my trip, I'll be working on some new stuff. I'm interested in seeing what can be done with the DIA area, and wholeheartedly agree that the space could be put to better use. HPSS' new DIA capability truly makes the process of configuring and skinning the DIA area easier and more fun.
For anyone interested, HPSS will not decompile the compressed version of the Horizons skin which comes with mySkin and myKbd but will decompile the original uncompressed version available in the PalmGear Horizons download. | |

But if you know how it is still possible. Most skinners would, though most casual users probably dont.

| Hey Joe, just wanted to show off your ZL theme. The first one is with the Vista_Bliss background from your file, and the second background I found here. The Gant Icons even look good!    | |

Joe, I still see the black buttons.  | |

| Wow Joe, 521 downloads so far! And just think, you could have made $20 and had just 1 download. 
Hey, I also noticed that you resized my Aurora background to 480x480, which is fine. But I still prefer the right-sized one, because with the 480x480 loaded in portrait mode, you get the spectrum of colors cut off, whereas with the 320x480 one I made, the full spectrum is kinda crunched in to fit, and IMHO looks better. My 2c!

| I like it alot but, as a Treo 650 user I would prefer to have the tool bars swapped.
In other words, the Windows flag symbol on the lower left hand corner to further simulate real Windows Vista on the Treo. Also having the option of an invisible QuickLaunch icon instead of the star to lay over the Windows flag symbol so when I tap the flag symbol, I can launch apps using Zlauncher QuickLaunch.
This is how I have it configured on an Winxp Blue theme and it looks awesome.

I did it that way for two reasons:
The top bar has a larger area to support the image of the Windows "button"
The Top/bottom bar icons are smaller than I would have prefered for it. If I were to change anything it'd be to make the Windows flag an Icon and leave it to the user to place. But if I did that it would not be as large as it is now. I suppose I could easily make a 3rd modded version with the Windows logo on the bottom.
I'll double check my files, but the version I have on my TX has the modified grey buttons.

True, but if you have a TX and switch between Portrait and Landscape modes as much as I do you'd want a 480x480 image.

If you have the time it would be very kind of you to modifiy it that way. If possible a invisible/clear QuickLaunch icon would work great with a bottom Windows "button". I would be more than proud to display a screenshot of your modded theme. Thanks
